Eye of Round Roast Recipe • Easy & Flavorful! | Club Foody

 

When I moved out of my parents’ place, I didn’t try cooking big pieces of meat. I was nervous just with ground beef and making Meatloaf or Shepherd’s Pie was a big deal. Eventually, I felt more comfortable and at ease in the kitchen…
 
One day, I asked my mother to show me how to cook an Eye of Round Roast. I couldn’t believe how easy it was plus the results were so delicious. This recipe was my stepping stone where I gained confidence and became more adventurous in the kitchen. It got to a point that making Beef Wellington, Lou Fassum, Chateaubriand, Coulibiac, Raviolo al’ Uovo, Pizza Rustica, Soufflé, Baked Alaska, Cheesecake, Croissants, Macarons, Béarnaise Sauce and so on was a fun challenge… not a fear.
 
If you’re a novice in the kitchen, this is a great recipe to make as it’s uncomplicated and so tasty! The ingredient that gives a nice flavor to this cut of beef are the pieces of garlic inserted into the meat. Another approach is to rub garlic all over the meat or do both, insert garlic pieces and rub the meat as well. I also brush on an oil mixture which is simply oil, stone ground mustard and Herbes de Provence which you can make from scratch by clicking on this link… Herbes de Provence • Make your own. If you want to know the brand I use for the mustard, it’s Inglehoffer… I love it!
 
Eye of Round Roast or any other meat like steak, chicken, lamb, etc. have to be patted dry prior to cooking to remove any excess moisture from the surface. When I say “patted dry”, I mean to lightly pat the meat not squeezing it by pressing too hard otherwise the inside moisture will be released and the finished result will be tough and flavorless.
 
Another important step is to bring the meat to room temperature to get an even cook. It doesn’t have to sit on the counter for hours… 20 to 30 minutes is sufficient. During the winter months, I might extend that to 45 minutes but not longer than that.
 
This easy Eye of Round Roast is pretty straightforward! It’s a great recipe to make for your Sunday dinner along with mashed potatoes and vegetables. If you want, make a quick gravy while the meat is resting – recipe below.
Bon Appétit!
